"Smoothest Launch Ever"

It's actually insulting to post smoothest launch ever while these forums are flooded with people who haven't been able to play the entire time.

Yep, its pretty bad. Uninstalled the game because shaders keep loading infinitely, along with the many bugs in the game. Its just unplayable, I rushed through campaign in sub 9 hours but that's all I could take. My character is sitting at the start of atlas progression, and I'm not playing until they fix this.

Its insane that these loading and performance/shader problems haven't even been acknowledged yet lol

How is it insulting to give feedback based on YOUR own personal experience lol. I get that having performance issues is frustrating and I feel for you cause I used to have them too when others didn't and they could play and I couldn't and yes it feels bad.

But that doesn't change the fact that for some people this is actually BY FAR the smoothest league launch ever. I have had 0 crashes, 0 freezes, performance issues were incredibly insignificant and rare and it takes about ~2 sec at most to load into anywhere (yep, even towns). It feels like middle of the league at league start.

So yeah when people say "smoothest league start ever" they mean from their perspective...obviously. That said, I hope your issues get sorted out soon, I have friends who also have these issues (and it's clearly not HW or connection related...seens to really just be random)

There seems to be a lot of performance issues with the game over the past few years that are localised only to certain areas or players. I've been lucky enough not to encounter these, but at other times I've been on the wrong side and know how frustrating that is when you know the problems aren't being priorities as the are not effecting everyone.

I agree with the comment, it has been the smoothest launched season out of all the seasons I've played. What ever the factors are that are causing the disparity in this experience across different players needs to be looked at by GGG and dramatically improved, because it seems to be a huge variance ranging from completely smooth to unplayable.

The load times were insane.

For nvidia, I updated my drivers and in the nvidia 3d settings, changed the shader cache from default to 10gb. it helped... a little.

Just because there are problems doesnt make their statement not true. Launches always have problems, they are just saying it was less than usual.

I have been getting long loading screens when trading. Even long in comparison to the already long ones.

I was having trouble with shader building a couple of years back, but it is much improved now. Unsure if GGG improved it or it was a setting I changed. I think I did a Direxctx and nvidia update at the end of last year that helped.

Have seen all the people having trouble this year, seems like it has been very bad for some.
